Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kai glanced to him, laughing when she (Ri) saw what he'd thought about her. "I knew it did one of two things. Either dust to dust, or chicken-ify him. I just didn't remember which spell did which." she said, leading him back to Leena.

"Leena, if there's anything we missed I'm sure you can find his spirit somewhere. Otherwise Dais can tell you what we learned. I don't exactly remember it all, I was a bit more focused on my spells than listening to him babble." she said, gracefully falling into a chair, once again with her legs crossed. The note with the names was gone too, hidden where only she would be able to retrieve it.

The extraneous information could wait, and he wasn't about to bluntly say that Altarion had killed Leena's parents on front of everyone.

"With the exception of Aduial, Altarion has been installing people in each of the kingdoms to make it easier for him to take over. The one in Mereth has been here for about a year. It is safe to say that he doesn't plan on taking kingdoms down one by one," Dais summarized. He had placed the sentence on Walter being replaced for about a year as an implied message to Leena.

Actually, having Dais's name down for Talagand didn't make sense either. Altarion had wanted him to go to Aduial. He couldn't be in two places at once... unless... wrong information was given to the spies purposely. Dais dropped the thought. He was thinking too much.

Gwen watched him go, glancing to Leena. "He did ask if we minded if he left and we told him he could go and we wouldn't die without the company." she pointed out, mildly surprised he'd left, rather than go hide with her like he used to. When Leena was mad at him he'd sit with her, and either hide behind her or let her hold/hug him. Yes, she was strange enough to treat a hawk like a puppy, but that was all she'd had at the time, and he never had done anything, just kept coming back.

"Something about strength and public and killing... someone. And I have a list of other agents, but they can be delt with soon enough once I've rested. The leaders will be informed and won't have to worry about finding them, or disposing of bodies and all the mess of a trial." Kai added.

Leena sighed and rubbed her temples, "Ok. Well, even then. I swear all he does is eat sometimes." She muttered, shaking her head before refocusing upon the more important things at hand. She laced her fingers together, her hands touching her lips in thought. She had an idea of what Kai actually meant by that, sighing heavily. "Ah, good. Alright, thank you Kai. Are you sure you don't want help with that?" She asked, turning her brown eyes to her friend with a small tilt of her head.

Though she was distracted by Dais' suggestion, nodding as her brown eyes came to rest on him. "It will be done. Is there another here in Mereth or did he not say?" She asked, wanting to know if she should be searching for another traitor or not.

"He did not say, but there is one." Because Dais was doing his usual "thinking too much" and connecting the dots on the shadow incident earlier and the incidents in the Mereth village. It wasn't Walter because Walter was already in. The shadow must have been from his partner.

((I'm waiting for Amaya/Amaryllis's response before Dais decides to explain his identity.))

"Oh." Kai made a short motion with her hand, the device appearing in hand. "To either Altarion or the partner. There's probably a way to trace it." she added.

Kai nodded. "Mkay. Oh, and if you need it for some reason his body's in a jar in one of the rooms. I can get it if I need to." she added, right as a servant knocked on the door.
"Um, Highness? There's a crazy strange black horse in the stables, and Marcus tried to touch her and she bit him, then tossed Mike when he tried to ride her..." a servant said hesitantly, drawing a sigh from Gwen.
"Why are you riding strange horses? Nevermind, don't answer that. Leena, I need to make sure Tyri's alright. I'm sorry to leave you again." she said, hurrying out to go to the stables to keep anyone else from doing something stupid where her mare was concerned.

Gwen paused, hearing someone in the bushes moaning. At first she assumed it was one of the boys who had messed with Tyri, until she saw the two being led off. "Dammit..." she muttered under her breath, going over and pausing when she saw Vadasz. "You're not dying, are you? Otherwise I'm not sure-" she started, hands resting on her hips. She winced when she heard a large crack, a shout, and the sound of hooves trotting out of the stable. She wasn't at all surprised to see Tyri, holding what looked like part of a pair of pants, and underwear, and a touch of blood.

"Tyri... Don't bite people, settle for kicking." she sighed, taking the things from her horse's mouth and throwing them at the man who had somehow been bitten in a fairly sensitive place. "Don't get your a** that close to her mouth and she'll leave you alone. She wouldn't have done anything if you hadn't messed with her to begin with." she said, not at all amused by the treatment her mare had recieved before she turned back to Vadasz, crouching down beside him.

"What'd you do? Eat the red berries again?" she asked softly, slightly teasingly. When she'd stayed with Leena's mother she'd found him in a similar state, though as a hawk rather than a half-dressed man, after eating berries he shouldn't have.
